Haryana Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare and Fisheries Minister JP Dalal held a review meeting of the Fisheries Department here today.

During the meeting, he stated that in the field of inland fish culture, the state was first in India as it had been producing around 9,600 kg per hectare annually. A target has been given to all district officials of the Fisheries Department to set up fishery units by March 31, 2022, he added.

He also sought the report of the number of fish farms set up in the past three years as well as the amount of subsidy provided to farmers. —TNS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
